Episode Details

Indiana Football is reportedly trending up for 4-star 2028 running back Xander Edwards, and Curt Cignetti continues to prove that the Hoosiers can recruit against some of the biggest programs in college football.

On today's Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down Indiana's pursuit of Edwards, the talented Florida running back who has drawn interest from programs including Miami, Notre Dame and Michigan.

Then, we turn our attention to Indiana's current running back room. Turbo Richard and Khobie Martin landed on the Doak Walker Award preseason watch list, while Lee Beebe Jr. gives the Hoosiers another dangerous option in what could be one of the deepest running back rooms in the Big Ten.

Plus, national reports are beginning to emerge from Indiana fall camp, and the latest buzz surrounding Josh Hoover should have Hoosier fans feeling even better about the quarterback heading into the 2026 season.

Can Indiana's offense remain one of the best in college football? And can Curt Cignetti continue turning Indiana into a destination for elite recruits?
